John Pollock and Wai Ting review WWE Raw from London, England with a heated promo battle between John Cena and Cody Rhodes.

John Cena, Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, CM Punk and Seth Rollins all delivered as the WWE WrestleMania 41 card developed and the Road to WrestleMania 41 ignited. Host Adam Silverstein and co-host Chris Vannini dive deep in The Main Event [22:30] exploring Rhodes vs. Cena finally getting on track, Punk reaching a career milestone and the massive triple threat with Reigns and Rollins still leaving something to be desired. "The Silver King" and "Vintage" open with WWE news around WrestleMania [8:40] and attack The Good, The Bad and The Ugly from Monday Night Raw and SmackDown [1:35:00], including GUNTHER vs. Jey Uso leveling up, Rhea Ripley getting closer to joining IYO SKY vs. Bianca Belair, Naomi delivering a career promo, Charlotte Flair vs. Tiffany Stratton taking a step forward and the latest involving Randy Orton, Kevin Owens, AJ Styles, Logan Paul, Liv Morgan, LA Knight, Jacob Fatu, Bron Breakker Penta, Finn Balor and Dominik Mysterio.

WWE continued its European tour with crowds hot while Monday Night Raw and SmackDown, relatively, were not. Host Adam Silverstein and co-host Chris Vannini open with a look at issues with WWE's presentation and promotion [8:15] before entering The Main Event [27:05] where they break down Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins vs. CM Punk being made official out of a thin segment, John Cena planning to retire with the WWE championship after beating Cody Rhodes and why the build to WWE WrestleMania 41 remains sluggish with three weeks left. "The Silver King" and "Vintage" then cover The Good, The Bad and The Ugly [1:15:30] diving into Charlotte Flair doing Tiffany Stratton no favors, IYO SKY vs. Bianca Belair vs. Rhea Ripley becoming convoluted, Randy Orton planning to kick Kevin Owens' head off, Jey Uso literally slipping against GUNTHER, intercontinental title build with Bron Breakker and Finn Balor, plus the controversial debut of El Grade Americano.

I was expecting more.  Tiffany Stratton also had a BAD NIGHT opposite Charlotte Flair, and I'll discuss what the WrestleMania 41 card is looking like right now.  Lex Luger wants STING to induct him into the Hall of Fame and WWE is said to be trying to make it happen, but are they really just publicly putting pressure on Tony Khan?  Also, TWO MORE names rumored for the Hall of Fame... running through this year's Slammy Awards categories... Jon Moxley tries to MAIM himself on AEW Dynamite... Jeff Jarrett says he LOVES tribalism among wrestling fans, why I respect him coming out and saying it and why I also think it's a terrible thing... triumph and tragedy on the independent scene... one female casual fan's perspective on WWE... names that never lived up to their potential in WWE... the plans for RVD's title run in 2006 had he not gotten busted... would Bret Hart have fit in the Attitude Era... and can Finn Balor be saved or is he DAMAGED GOODS?***Follow Solomonster on X (formerly Twitter) for news and opinion:http://x.com/solomonsterSubscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join
